Autoshutdown

Automatic shutdown tools for PC are often seen as solutions for lazy people. While there can a bit of truth behind that idea, adults should be more concerned about comfort than opinions.

If you prefer to sit comfortably in your bed while watching your favorite series, documentaries, or movies, and be carried away to sleep during runtime, Autoshutdown can take care of powering down your PC. Also, this particular tool has a silly, anime-like theme to it, if you are into such things.

Scheduling your computer for shutdown should be one of the easiest tasks ever. Luckily, this application was developed around this idea. The interface resembles a notepad sheet more than anything, and it also with a pink background.

What one has to do to activate the power-off function is to provide the time interval. Three text boxes and three buttons are this app's weapons. Just type in a value for hours, minutes and seconds, and click the 'peesee slweep' button to schedule it. Besides the shutdown function, the app does not offer additional options like restart, log off, etc.

Indeed, silly is the perfect word to describe how the buttons were labeled, but each to his own.

If you schedule the app by mistake, don't fret, there is a quick way to undo the error. Use the 'no slweepy! button to revert any set interval. Clicking this button once should do the trick. A system prompt will also pop up, informing you about the action's success, just like when you schedule an interval, but with a different message.

Autoshutdown is one of the simplest power-off utilities out there. However, its flashy GUI might act like a double-edged sword: some individuals might enjoy its weirdness, while others can be completely put off by both colors and expressions. In short, the app does its job, but it's up to you if you like its layout or not.
